Terms of Service.
01The agreement
By creating an account or using Your Next Seat(the “Service”), you agree to these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, do not use the Service. These Terms incorporate by reference our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Refund Policy, and Cancellation Policy.
The Service is operated by Your Next Seat, an unincorporated sole proprietorship based in Pakistan. For all correspondence, [email protected]is the address of record. You are the “user” or “you”.
02What the Service does
Your Next Seat aggregates publicly listed job opportunities for manager-and-above professionals, scores them against your CV using in-house scoring, and helps you track your applications. We are a tool, not a recruiter. We do not employ you, do not place you, and do not guarantee any job, interview, offer, or outcome.
We also offer:
- A free public Score My Fit tool that returns a match score for any job URL and CV pair without requiring an account.
- An optional in-app AI Assistant that answers job-search questions using your own data, available after you have given explicit consent.
- An optional Weekly Digest email summarising new matches and tracker reminders, with a one-click unsubscribe in every message.
03Eligibility and account
- You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter contracts in your jurisdiction.
- You are responsible for keeping your credentials secure, for all activity under your account, and for notifying us promptly of any suspected unauthorised access at [email protected].
- We may refuse, suspend, or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, abuse the Service (scraping, automation, credential sharing), or are used to post content that is illegal, harassing, infringing, or fraudulent.
04Plans, billing, and renewal
4.1 Plans
- Free — open signup. No invite code is required. You may keep up to 10 jobs in your tracker at any one time on a rolling basis: untracking a job frees a slot immediately. Search and apply-click are unlimited.
- Basic — monthly or annual subscription, available when paid billing launches. See pricing.
- Pro — monthly or annual subscription, available when paid billing launches; includes everything in Basic plus additional features listed on pricing.
Prices are in USD and exclude local sales tax (VAT, GST, sales tax), which our payment processor collects and remits where required by law.
4.2 No free trial; Beta vs. launch
We do not offer a free trial. During the Beta period (before billing is enabled), the Service is provided free of charge until billing launches— this is a temporary Beta state, not a trial that converts to paid. After launch, paid plans are charged from the first day of the subscription with no trial period. Your statutory cooling-off rights (Section 4.6) still apply to your first paid purchase.
4.3 Payment and Merchant of Record
Paid plans are sold and processed by Paddle.com, acting as our reseller and Merchant of Record. Paddle is the merchant on your statement and is responsible for processing payments, taxes, and refunds. By purchasing, you also accept Paddle’s Buyer Terms.
4.4 Automatic renewal
Paid subscriptions renew automatically at the then-current price for the same period until you cancel. You authorise our payment processor to charge your payment method on each renewal date. We will present the price, billing cadence, and renewal terms prominently at subscription and, where required by law, send renewal and price-change reminders.
4.5 Cancellation and refund options
You can cancel at any time from Account → Billingin two clicks — no harder than signing up. There is no requirement to call, email, or pass through retention steps. At the point of cancelling, you choose between two options:
- Option A — Cancel at period end. Renewal stops. Access continues to the end of the current paid period. At period end, your account moves to the Free plan. There is no refund of unused time in the current period.
- Option B — Cancel now and refund unused days. Your paid access ends immediately and your account moves to the Free plan today. We refund a proportionate amount for the days you have not used in the current paid period. The refund is calculated as amount paid × (days remaining ÷ period days), floored to whole days, and issued via Paddle to your original payment method.
We do not delete your data on cancellation. Full mechanics and edge cases are in the Cancellation Policy and Refund Policy.
4.6 Statutory consumer rights (precedence)
Nothing in this Section 4 removes mandatory consumer rights, including the EU/EEA/UK/Swiss 14-day right of withdrawal (applied proportionately for an online service you begin using immediately), the Australian Consumer Law, the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, and other applicable local rights. Where they apply, they take precedence. See the Refund Policy.
Express request to begin performance during the withdrawal period. The Service is an online software service that you begin using immediately on subscribing. At checkout you expressly request that we begin providing the Service during the 14-day withdrawal period, and you acknowledge that if you withdraw during that period we may keep a proportionate amount for the part of the Service already supplied to you, and that once the paid period has been fully provided the withdrawal right for that period is exhausted. This request and acknowledgement are captured by Paddle at checkout.
05Acceptable use — what you may do
You may use the Service to search for jobs, score them against your CV, track your applications, and export your own application history. Tier-specific features are listed on the pricing page.
06Acceptable use — what you may not do
You may not:
- Use the Service for anything other than your own job search.
- Resell, share, sublicense, or transfer your account.
- Scrape, crawl, or programmatically extract Service data (use our export tools instead).
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code or models.
- Submit content you do not own or have rights to (e.g. another person’s CV).
- Use the Service to discriminate against, harass, defame, or impersonate anyone.
- Bypass rate limits, quotas, or access controls.
Breach may result in suspension or termination without notice, subject to your statutory rights.
07Prohibited uses — automated access and anti-scraping
The Service, including all job listings, search results, scores, listing metadata, and any data displayed to you, is provided solely for your own personal, manual job searchand is made available only to authenticated, logged-in users. To protect the Service, our data sources, and other users, you agree that you will not, and will not authorise, enable, or assist any third party or software to:
- Scrape, crawl, spider, harvest, index, or otherwise programmatically extract any content or data from the Service, in whole or in part, by any automated or manual process, including via scripts, bots, headless browsers, scrapers, crawlers, data-mining tools, browser automation, or AI agents.
- Access the Service through any automated means (including bots, robots, scrapers, or offline readers) other than (a) your own ordinary use through a standard web browser, or (b) the official tools we provide for your own use (e.g. our export features for your own data).
- Bulk-collect, aggregate, copy, store, republish, redistribute, license, sell, or otherwise commercialise any listings, search results, or other Service data, or create or attempt to create a competing or derivative dataset, database, or service from it.
- Circumvent, disable, bypass, or otherwise interfere with any access control, authentication, rate limit, usage quota, CAPTCHA, bot-detection, or other technical measure; or use multiple accounts, automation, proxies, IP rotation, or shared credentials to evade such measures.
- Make an unreasonable or disproportionate volume of requests to the Service, or any request volume that degrades, overloads, or impairs the Service or its infrastructure.
- Use any data from the Service to train, fine-tune, or develop any machine-learning model, large language model, or other AI system, or to build any product or service, except for your own personal job search.
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code, models, scoring logic, underlying data structures, or non-public APIs of the Service.
We employ technical measures (including rate limiting, per-account quotas, bot challenges, and access logging) to detect and prevent prohibited automated access. We may, at our discretion and without notice, throttle, suspend, or terminate any account, block any IP address or device, and pursue all available legal remedies against any person engaged in scraping or other prohibited automated access. Nothing in this Section limits the mandatory statutory rights that apply to you as a consumer.
08Your content
You retain ownership of everything you submit (CV, profile data, tracked jobs, notes). You grant us a limited, non-exclusive licence to store, process, and display your content to you (and to anyone you explicitly share it with, where such a feature exists) solely to provide the Service per the Privacy Policy. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, subject to retention required by law or stated in the Privacy Policy.
09Our content and third-party listings
The application, score logic, UI, any browser extension, and any generated drafts are ours or licensed to us. You may use them in your job search but may not republish, redistribute, or resell them.
Job listing data is aggregated from public career-site sources. We do not control its accuracy, completeness, or currency, and we do not guaranteethat any listing is current or that any role is open. You should verify any listing on the employer’s own site before applying.
10AI Assistant
The in-app AI Assistant is opt-in. You enable it by giving explicit consent, which we record against your account. You can withdraw consent at any time from Account → AI Assistant, after which no further data is sent to our AI provider.
Each plan tier has a monthly usage cap, which we display to you inside the Service. AI output is generated, not curated— treat it as a starting point, review it before acting on it, and be aware that it may contain errors or bias. You are responsible for anything you send to employers. We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or fitness of AI output. Your inputs are not used to train any third-party model.
11Disclaimers
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties (merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement) and do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free, that scores predict outcomes, that listings are current or accurate, or that you will obtain interviews, offers, or employment. Nothing in this Section limits the statutory consumer guarantees that cannot be excluded (e.g. under the Australian Consumer Law, NZ CGA, or EU/UK consumer law).
12Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability for any claim arising from or relating to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim, or (b) USD 100. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages (including lost wages, lost opportunity, or distress).
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any liability under mandatory consumer-protection law.
13Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law (and subject to mandatory consumer protections), you agree to indemnify us against third-party claims arising from your breach of these Terms, your content, your unlawful use of the Service, or your interactions with employers via the Service.
14Suspension and termination
- By you. Cancel a paid plan at any time (Cancellation Policy); delete your account at any time from settings.
- By us. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these Terms, if required by law, or if we discontinue the Service (we will give 90 days notice and offer a data export).
- On cancellation (as distinct from deletion): access to paid features ends at period end; your account drops to the Free plan; your data is not deleted.
- On account deletion or termination: your access ends and your data is handled per the Privacy Policy retention and erasure schedule.
- Provisions that by nature should survive (amounts owed, IP, disclaimers, liability, indemnity, governing law, dispute resolution) survive termination.
15Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be notified by email with a 30-day notice period; continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. If you do not accept a material change, stop using the Service before the effective date and cancel; where required by law, you may exercise applicable statutory remedies.
16Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, and disputes are subject to the courts of Pakistan, exceptwhere mandatory consumer-protection law gives you the right to bring proceedings in, or have your contract governed by the law of, your country of residence. For consumers in the EU/EEA, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia, this clause does not deprive you of protections that cannot be derogated from by agreement.
